Established in 2009.

We threw open the garage doors in 2009 and have been cruisin' ever since. Malfunction Junction Automotive is an independently owned and operated service repair shop founded by Daniel Rodriguez. Daniel and his wife Cynthia have earned a loyal customer base and gained a reputation for excellence in customer service, reliability, and solid workmanship not by meeting their customers' expectations, but by exceeding them. We gain clients the old-fashioned way; we earn their trust. Come and see why so many of your friends and neighbors in Alice call Malfunction Junction the only place they'll bring their car.

Meet the Business Owner: Daniel R.

Daniel, an army veteran and ASE Master Technician, has over 30 years experience in the automotive industry. Working at dealerships, Daniel saw many vehicles leave the service department without being properly repaired, but their owners charged as if they were. He was inspired to open his own shop and provide complete car care. Customers always know what is wrong with their vehicle and don't have to return for the same problem. Daniel and Cynthia are passionate about serving the community that trusts in their business. Malfunction Junction Automotive sponsors the Youth Football Camp in Alice and is a member of the Alice Chamber of Commerce.

Then they try to tell me it will be $800. Pure trash. It's cheaper and easier to get a hotel and wait until a decent mechanic is available. Red is a POS. When I told him it was an outrageous price he informed me he didn't care, he'd just take whatever I wouldn't pay out of his installers cut... just unbelievable business. NEVER USE THEM.
